I've been reading a book called "True Confessions of a Teenage Starlet" by Lola Douglas and there are two characters who are twins, a boy and a girl. Their names are Emily and Eli. Personally, I like them both and think they work together. WDYT?

I love Eli. Always will.

Even though matchy names tend to make me want to puke, this set it cute. =]

I think they're way too similar for a sibset, especially as Eli is included in Emily. I like the names separately, though. I like Eli from The Decemberists' song.

I'm an Emily. I wish my name wasn't so popular:[. First everyone in my class, now books? Hah, wow.

I can honestly tell you that I've never met a single girl named Emily. I think the first time I heard someone say they knew an Emily was my friend talking about riding the bus home with Emily, his sister.

Then again, I live in New Zealand where every third person is a Jessica or an Ashley. So at least you'd be an original kid here xD

I really don't like Emily. I think it's mostly how it looks, not so much how it sounds.

Eli's pretty cute, though.

I like them together.

I like both names, but seeing them together kind of makes me want to pronounce Eli differently. It's silly, and it doesn't happen when I'm actually saying them, just when I see them written down.

Eli is one of my top names 8).

I like Emily too, but I think Emily/Eli is too matchy, especially for twins.

I was going to be named Eli if I was a boy. It's definitely my name choice if I end up having a boy in the future.
